Wordle - and other fun, addicting word games.

I play it every now and then. I need a bit more time than Wordle to play. I'm usually around 75%.

I like it better because it's far more challenging but I play Wordle every day because I can get a game done while I'm waiting for the dogs to come back in fr. Their morning business.

 

Yeah ill usually do my Wordle while the coffee brews in the morning, very convenient hahaha

 

Got it in 3 today!

Four. No yellows this time... weird.

Mining data on a spreadsheet for work where I was using formulas to count the number of occurrences of certain numbers and specific text, I thought it would be interesting to do the same with Wordle. What letters are used more often? So I had started keeping screen shots of the puzzles after I solved them with the intent of ranking the letters. Turns out, not surprisingly, this has already been done many times.

I started to read a story on Tom's Guide and it was interesting. Data broken down into many results. You can see most common letters in general, by position, etc. Even best starting words. I stopped reading because I want to figure it out myself. Otherwise, why play? But it is an interesting read, so check it out if you want. Link hid in spoiler, just to give pause to think about it before you dive into that rabbit hole.

My 3rd guess was LLAMA which was completely plausible but kinda stupid in hindsight lol.
